A Good Investment.

Anyone who mas ever dealt in lands,
knows that no investment of money will
so surely and quickly yield a return, as
such venture If carefully made. To
the absolute safety Of government
bond, is added profit far in excess of
rate of interest which can be obtained
on any safe loan. In Kansas and Neb-
raska especially lands are raising in value
very rapidly and with steady growth
which gives assurance Of stability. The
good season aud the great tide OF immis
grafton into these states has made invest
ment there doubly safe and desirable
The climate of Southern Nebraska aud
of Kansas, free as it is from the long
RIGOROUS cold winter. added to a soil
unsurpassed for richness and productive
capacity, has made possible the wonderful
development of these states. To the far
mer they hold out special inducements.
Cheap land. easy term of purchase, good
markets and varied products enable him to
own his farm at smaller cost and with less
labor than is required to pay rent for the
land he occupies here. or the interest on
the money he has invested in it.
If you are looking for a safe place to
invest money, where it will pay you a
large and sure profit, or il you are farm
er and want farm of your own, call on
me and see what l have to offer. will
make the visit profitable to you. Office

DREAD Insnirations Cont,rmed.

Some time ago the ARGUS mentioned
the fact that Mr. Bob Shannon, of LIE
Claire, had probably lost his life, by
drowning, while attempting to cross on
the ice between lie Claire and Port Byron.
There was, however, still doubt in the
minds of some people. whether or not he
had really lost his life in the manner
stated. A day or two ago an investiga-
ton was made by the citizens of LIE
Claire. As the surface snow had melted.
his footsteps were easily traced from the
Iowa shore to the edge of the ice where
he had stepped off into the opening that
had been left BY the ice cutters. The
ice was removed for considerable space
about the place in hopes that his body
might be found, but no signs of the
remains could be found. The swift
current: undoubtedly carried the body
away under the ice. There can, how
ever, be no doubt but what Bob Shannon
was drowned that bitter cold night, while
attempting to cross the river, as all
the evidence confirms the belief.

RULED BY PREJUDICE.

Few persons realize how thoroughly
they are controlled by prejudice even to
their own disadvantage. For many years
the treatment of rheumatism, neuralgia,
sciatica and headache has been by some
outward application, and, therefore, with
out stopping to think that the origin of
these troubles mast, from necessity, be in
ternal, the weary sufferer continues to rub,
rub and find no relief Athlophorosi taken
internally, and as proof that this is the
correct principle, it cures surely and quick
lx The statement of those who hare been
cured ought to convince the incredulous.
Raleigh, Ill.
My wife had infammatory rheumatism in
its worst form, and after being treated by
good physician and using several remedies
with no good effect we tried Athlophoros.
The first dose gave instant relief, and she
was entirely cured by the use of three bot
ties. have recommended it to my friends
and it has given satisfaction in every case.
1t gives me pleasure to make this unso-
licited testimonial. Use it as you see proper.
L. K. STRIcKLIN.
Donnellson, Montgomery Co., Ill.
Was suffering from seiatic rheumatism
for some time; procured bottle of Athlo-
phoros and was relieved after using half
bottle and have not been bothered since.
My case was very bad. D. F. DAVIS.
Mt. Carroll, Ill.
l have been afflicted with rheumatism
for two years, especially in one shoulder,
and tried other remedies with no help.
Having heard of Athlophoros l obtained
one bottle took it according to directions
and found immediate relief, and | can
recommend it to sufferers from the same
complaint. LEWIS Bliss. Age 70.
Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
and Athlophoros Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlo-
phoros Co.. ll2 Wall ST., New York, will
send either Carriage paid on receipt Of
regular price, which is Sl.00 per bottle
for Athlophoros and Soc for Pills.
For liver and kidney diseases dyspepsia, in
digestion, weakness, nervous debility, diseases
of women, constipation, headache, impure
blood &c, Athlophoros Pills are unequaled.

The Canal .

A Washington dispatch says: Mr..
Murphy made great haste to have the
Rennepin canal bill printed, but the
committee on rivers and harbors decided
not to consider it until the return of
General Henderson from Springfield.
The committee recognizes him as one of
the special champions of the measure.
Mr.. Murphy thinks that the committee,
in view of the favorable report of the
secretary of war, will agree to favorably
report the bill to construct this canal.
Other members have a contrary opinion
At all events, the action of the committee
will not be taken for few days. Should
the river and barbor bill be reached in
the house before the committee shall be
ready to proceed with Hennepin. the
house will not be asked to delay the
consideration Of the bill In that event
the friends of Hennepin would carry
their case to Che senate. Any estimate
as to the probable fate of the measure at
this session is necessarily speculative.

A report was sent here from keokuk
last night stating that the Atchison,
Topeka 6 Santa Fe road had leased the
bridge at Keokuk and would cross there
instead of Fort Madison. 1t has since
transpired that the report was circulated
as Joke. and that the Fl. Madison peo-
pie were much excited over the rumor.
A dispatch from Galena says: Informa,
tion regarded as trustworthy has been
received here TO the effect that the Chi
cago, Burlington & Northern company
will in the spring extend its road from
this city to Shullsburg, Wis, forming a
junction with the Monroe branch of the
Chicago, Milwaukee s St. Paul road,
direct connection from the
Mineral Point division of its road to
Savanna and the Mississippi river. The
report excites great interest both in
Galeua and at Shullsburg.
